    Great to send out your strongest side no matter who you play against.
    No complacency, another strong performance and win please:)
     
    Of course happy with the line up but concerned about i think it also proves how weak our depth is.
    Matic/Shaw should be replacable...

    Matic has been brilliant why would you bench him?
     
    Thought Matic would be rested. This is probably one of easiest games remaining and could have also given Laird or Chong a place in the bench.
     
    I get folks talking up big scores, for me I'll just be happy to take our opportunity and win.

    The amount of times we have fluffed our lines after teams above us have slipped up.

    Come on United.
     
    Bournemouth are fighting against the drop. Can't take things too lightly here. We must be prepared to scrap.
     
    So Bournemouth without Charlie Daniels, Steve Cook, Ryan Fraser and Callum Wilson - in addition to David Brooks not even close to being back to where he was before his injury - add to that 1 Point in the last 7 and a goal difference of 5-16

    Bruno alone has scored as many goals as Bournemouth in the last 7 games
     
    Going for a 5-0 including a penalty. Bruno, Rashford, Martial, Greenwood and Ighalo to get a goal each.
     
    11/11 because I forgot to change the prediction :lol:

    Reckon we will keep on building momentum, something this Ole team seems to do, really excited about us at the moment

    Matic should rest when he is looking burnt out. This is a very tight top 4 race so there's no room for error and we should be starting our best players and only taking them off when they are underperforming or we are in a comfortable lead.

    There is a reason for that they aren't particularly good ,though there is a impression that teams fighting relegation tend to suddenly come alive during final run but I don't think it's backed by any evidence as such.

    No, you can't take chances.
    These teams are fighting to survive so expect a hard game.

    Win then rest. These players can manage 60 minutes every 3/4 days as long as we use our 5 subs well each game.
     
    With five subs available to us I’m ok with starting our top XI, but this really is an occasion to rest a few players who need it.

    West Ham just beat Chelsea.
     
    Excited to see the same line up that's been playing so well recently. Very important to put them away early and take some key players off. Keep the pressure on the team ahead of us.
     
    Like the fact that it’s unchanged and easily our best 11 on the pitch. Regardless of the fixture on paper, it’s best if we continue this momentum. Both Leicester and Chelsea would feel very uneasy.

    I hope it is a comfortable scoreline by the first half, after which we can afford to rest some of our players.
     
    Hope we not just win but improve GD significantly.

    Lingard not even on bench. Fine. But how the club planning to offload him? Or pay 5m just to train with the first squad for next 12 months? Good life eh.

    Thats not how you manage 'rest' though. You don't wait until the player is burnt out and take him off from the next match. You look for easy matches and bring the backups so thats we still get our job done but the player is well rested ready to help us later.
